I use Tespo (gettespo.com), which has a bariatric formula (powdered vitamins) that is added to Water and doesn't taste half bad. I look at it as a Keurig for Vitamins. Hope this helps.

I used this clinic but Dr Nicholson did my surgery. He was very excellent. I had no issues or problems whatsoever.

One nice thing is that when it's time for surgery they get all your meds overnighted to you.

I am thinking Dr Kilgore must be a bit newer to this practice, I know she wasn't there in 2014.

I had surgery at Baylor Hospital in Plano, which was amazing.

Thank you so much for your review! I had a bad experience with Baylor Plano when I had my gallbladder removed a few years ago, so I will likely go with one of the other facilities use (hoping for Medical Center of Frisco, but I suppose it will depend on my insurance).

That's cool, the other nice thing is that they offer a lot of choices as to which hospital to use!

Thanks again!

I visited the Nicholson clinic and they were not very helpful to me, but they have a great reputation. I ended up figuring out that my insurance recommended the Center for Bariatric Excellence at Plano Presby. I had my surgery there with Dr. Hamn and couldn't be happier.

I hope someone else who have use Nicholson answers you!

Thank you so much for your insight! I had looked into Drs. Hamn & Cribbins, as well. We're lucky in NTX with so many great options!

I was sleeved 8/4 by Dr Cribbins, he did my mom on 9/4 and a good friend last week. Love him and his office!!! My mom and I did our research of docs before choosing him, including the Nicholson Clinic, Kim Bariatric and a few others. Drs Cribbins/Hamm came VERY highly recommended. Not to mention several of my patients saw them and had excellent experiences. Even my ortho said he wouldn't send him family to anytime but Cribbins/Hamm. They operate at either Plano Presbyterian or Baylor Frisco.

Just my 2 cents.

Thank you!

I checked out Nicholson clinic about a year ago and had a bad experience. Also checked out Dr. Kim before going with Dr. Hamn. Dr. Hamn was the best. Ended up having a wonderful experience (sleeved 11/3/16) with him as well as his staff.

I had reconstructive plastic surgery on my face after surgery for skin cancer a couple years ago and my surgeon recommended "Scar Away". Worked really well as you can't see the scar on my face so I have been using it on my sleeve scars (sleeved 11/3/16) along with some Vitamin E.

I'm 14 days out & have been using Tespo. It's similar to a keurig but for Vitamins. They have a "bariatric formula" that are in pre packaged wells for each day of the month. It's been really easy so far.
